REQUEST LWI MAPS AS GIS SHAPEFILESThe more recent LWI maps are submitted with GIS shapefiles of the wetland layers. Some of the older LWIs predate this technology. See the View Local Wetland Inventory maps and reports list to check availability.

To request LWI GIS layer shapefiles contact (Randy Sounheinat 503-986-5270) We will post the requested files to the FTP site and provide download instructions. GIS data consists of multiple files. Since these are large files they will be compressed (zipped) for easy download and organization.

For users with an operating system older than Windows 7, you will need to use a Zip software program in order to unzip these files. If you do not have Windows 7, or a Zip program on your system, you may click here to download a common Zip application.

ORDER A COPY OF AN AREA OF AN LWI

Department staff will make a single page copy of a specific area, free of charge, upon receiving a written request that includes the TRS and tax lot number(s), with a vicinity map with nearest cross streets, or a tax lot map with Township, Range, Section, tax lot number(s) and streets and your contact information. On-site data sheets and wetland summary sheet can be requested for the area specified. Please contact the Department (Heather Howard or Andrea Downing at 503-986-5235)

ORDER LWI DOCUMENTATION

If you want copies of LWI documentation (a portion of the report such as the on-site data sheets, wetland summaries, OFWAM, etc.), the Department can provide copies at a cost of $0.25 per page for the first 25 pages and $0.10 per page after the first 25 pages. In addition, a $21.00/hour labor will be charged, pro-rated to the quarter hour. Pre-payment is required. Please contact the Department (Heather Howard or Andrea Downing at 503-986-5235) for an estimated cost on the LWI you are requesting.

ORDER AN LWI MAP OR COMPLETE SET OF MAPS

Copies of an entire LWI map set can be requested. LWI maps range in size from 11"x17" to 36"x48" and usually consist of several maps; however, some LWIs may have as many as 50 maps. The cost varies depending on map size and the number of maps. The Department may charge an extra fee or may need to use an outside vendor for reproduction. Estimated cost ranges from $2.00 to $5.00 per map sheet for black & white reproduction and $4.00 for shipping for the first map and $0.25 for each additional map. In addition, a $21.00/hour labor will be charged, pro-rated to the quarter hour. Please contact the Department (Heather Howard or Andrea Downing at 503-986-5235) for an estimated cost on the LWI you are requesting. Pre-payment is required.
